ihab7000 Posted June 3, 2014 Posted June 3, 2014 Dear all, I have two boards in my house: extreme vi and formula vi. I have read many reviews on both. I really cannot decide which one to choose. I have one week to take one of both. I have an asus xonar Phoebus sound card and sapphire 7970. I am not a gamer but I like to play games. I am interested more in tweaking. I have heard about the battery problem on the formula vi. Please can any one help me to decide which one to choose? Thx in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccokeman Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 If you want tweaking and tuning they are both going to be great for that purpose. I did not test the Formula but love the water cooled heat sink package. The Extreme comes with the ASUS OC Panel and will allow you the most play time. If you are not water cooling them the Extreme would be my choice but if you are the Formula has that unique option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihab7000 Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Dear frank thx so much for your reply. No water cooling . I have corsair h100i. Processor 4770k. I have the option of keeping the OC panel which is compatible with the formula. So again what do you suggest? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccokeman Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 If you can keep the OC Panel the Formula will save you a few bucks and give you all the performance you can get out of your chip with that cooling system. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
